Difference between library VS package VS plugin - El Forum - 02-09-2012

Hello!
Since when the package is built in CI? I use the 2.XX version since its release last year but it's the first that i find out the existence of package!
As I know, it is the plugin which has been removed since 2.0 version. Is package the substitution of plugin?
How to well use package which looks like library, isn't it?

Plugins were a single PHP file that contained a class or functions.
Libraries are a single class.
Packages are a folder, which can contain libraries, models, views, helpers and languages.

OK, I see that
When package is introduced in CodeIgniter? I don't remember an announcement about it, I just saw it in certain open source cms built with CI.

It's been in there since CodeIgniter 2.0-dev was made available on BitBucket which was what... 2 years ago?
Keep an eye on the change-log.
